No I definately don't agree. There is huge difference between the Pet and Droids which is that there are pets higher than lvl 13 while droids don't. If you are using Lvl 67 Kimo as pet fighting krayt, then ofcourse you need to use Pet stim D, but how many people who are using pet lvl 10 hunting butterflies ever need Pet Stim D?

Right now Droids are limited to lvl 13, and with no armor, Droid Repair Kit D, E, F or Z wouldn't help you against any significant mob, and if you are using them to to fight the kind of mob which droids are useful for, any repair kit above B is overkill.

The problem with building "the best" droid repair kits is that there is no point.

I opened Notepad on my desktop and wrote a FAQ for my customers. I used the \#xxxxxx color codes to lay it out. When I get my first inquiry of the day about a Droid I cut it and paste it to an email and send the customer the FAQ.


I include information about: battery usage, armor changes, repair kits, reconstruction kits, Vitality kits, basic cost of various models, and combat.


It seems to work well, and I dont get stuck in tell-hell for 20 minutes explaining every detail.

how do you cut and paste from the your desktop's notepad to an in-game email? Or is there some in-game notepad that I don't know about?

I use Notepad (or an equiv) daily. The only requirement for cut-n-paste that I know of is to map the chat-copy/chat-paste keys... I use ctrl-alt-C for in-game cut and ctrl-alt-v for in-gamepaste.


If I recall correctly (and I am getting kinda old *disclaimer*), works fine for me.




Well I hope that works! It will be very cool if the in-game cut-and-paste actually uses the standard windows clipboard buffer!

to open up the notepad just hit /no

and viola the note pad opens.

I have also noticed when coping and pasting you can paste more letters and numbers into the final name of the deed, or what ever you are crafting, than you could type in to the name

Yes, the in-game cut and paste use the Windows Clipboard buffer. I use both the in-game /notepad and the Windows notepad on a regular basis.
